Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 3022 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The Beast

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُزَيْقِ بْنِ جَامِعٍ الْمِصْرِيُّ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ السَّدُوسِيُّ، ثنا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، حَدَّثَنِي طَلْحَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَرِيحَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " الدَّابَّةُ يَكُونُ لَهَا ثَلَاثُ خَرَجَاتٍ مِنَ الدَّهْرِ: فَتَخْرُجُ خَرْجَةً فِي أَقْصَى الْيَمَنِ حَتَّى يَفْشُوَ ذِكْرُهَا فِي أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ، وَلَا يَدْخُلُ ذِكْرُهَا الْقَرْيَةَ، ثُمَّ تَكْمُنُ زَمَانًا طَوِيلًا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ تَخْرُجُ أُخْرَى قَرِيبًا مِنْ مَكَّةَ، فَيَفْشُو ذِكْرُهَا فِي أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ، وَيَفْشُو ذِكْرُهَا بِمَكَّةَ، ثُمَّ تَكْمُنُ زَمَانًا طَوِيلًا، ثُمَّ بَيْنَا النَّاسُ يَوْمًا بِأَعْظَمِ الْمَسَاجِدِ عَلَى اللهِ حُرْمَةً، وَخَيْرِهَا وَأَكْرَمِهَا عَلَى اللهِ، الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ، لَمْ يَرُعْهُمْ إِلَّا نَاحِيَةَ الْمَسْجِدِ تَرْبُو مَا بَيْنَ الرُّكْنِ وَالْمَقَامِ إِلَى بَابِ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ عَلَى يَمِينِ الْخَارِجِ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ، فَانْفَضَّ النَّاسُ عَنْهَا شَتَّى ومَعًا، وَثَبَتَ لَهَا عِصَابَةٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، وَعَرَفُوا أَنَّهُمْ لَنْ يُعْجِزُوا اللهَ، فَخَرَجَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ تَنْفُضُ عَنْ رَأْسِهَا التُّرَابَ، فَبَدَتْ لَهُمْ، فَحَلَّتْ وُجُوهَهُمْ حَتَّى تَرَكَتْهَا كَأَنَّهَا الْكَوَاكِبُ الدُّرِّيَّةُ، ثُمَّ وَلَّتْ فِي الْأَرْضِ لَا يُدْرِكُهَا طَالِبٌ وَلَا يُعْجِزُهَا هَارِبٌ، حَتَّى إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَقُومُ يَتَعَوَّذُ مِنْهَا بِالصَّلَاةِ، فَتَأْتِيهِ فَتَقُولُ: أَيْ فُلَانُ، الْآنَ تُصَلِّي؟ فَيُقْبِلُ عَلَيْهَا بِوَجْهِهِ، فَتَسِمُهُ فِي وَجْهِهِ ثُمَّ تَذْهَبُ، وَيَتَحاوَرُ النَّاسُ فِي دُورِهِمْ فِي أَسْفَارِهِمْ، ويَشْتَرِكُونَ فِي الْأَمْوَالِ، وَيُعْرَفُ الْكَافِرُ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ، حَتَّى إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ لَيَقُولُ لِلْكَافِرِ: يَا كَافِرُ، اقْضِنِي حَقِّي، وَحَتَّى إِنَّ الْكَافِرَ يَقُولُ: يَا مُؤْمِنُ، اقْضِنِي حَقِّي "
It is narrated from Abu Sarihah Hudhayfah bin Asid (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Beast of the Earth will emerge three times in the course of time. The first time it will emerge in the farthest part of Yemen, until talk of it spreads among the people of the desert, but the news will not enter the towns. Then it will remain hidden for a long time. Then it will emerge again near Makkah, and talk of it will spread among the people of the desert and spread in Makkah too. Then it will remain hidden for a long time. Then one day, while the people are in the mosque that is greatest in sanctity before Allah, the best and most honoured of them before Allah, that is, al-Masjid al-Haram, nothing will alarm them except that in that corner of the mosque, from between the Corner and the Maqam up to the door of Banu Makhzum, on the right of one leaving the mosque, the ground begins to swell. The people will scatter from it in panic, separately and together, while a group of the Muslims will stand firm, knowing that they cannot escape Allah. Then it will come out upon them, shaking the dust from its head. It will appear before them and make their faces shine until it leaves them like glittering stars. Then it will turn away into the earth; no pursuer will catch it and no fugitive will escape it, so much so that a man will stand in prayer to seek refuge from it, and it will come to him and say: O so-and-so! Now you pray? He will turn his face towards it, and it will put a mark on his face and then go away. And people will converse with one another in their homes and on their journeys, and they will be partners in wealth, and the disbeliever will be distinguished from the believer, so much so that the believer will say to the disbeliever: O disbeliever, pay me my due; and the disbeliever will say to the believer: O believer, pay me my due."
